Our tasting notes

14 February 2012

Prosecco (sparkling wine from the Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia regions of northern Italy) up until the 1960's was generally a sweeter sparkling wine.  The Prosecco wines that we now know and love today are far from the sweet, grapey styles of the past.  On the nose the wine has delicate aromas of blossom, apples and a rich bready note.  The palate is dry with a hint of minerality, subtle crisp fruit salad flavours and elegant fizz. Perfect on its own or mixed with peach puree as a Bellini Cocktail.
